The Village Idiot Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Have a BTTT I've got one of these and what Ben hasn't said that on snow and ice with a tiny wheelbase they will not drive in a straight line - they are just terrific fun Dicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Long Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 Thanks Richard. It's certainly been great fun and it sounds awesome. I'll be sorry to see it go, but my sensible side is ruling that a new bathroom beckons!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GHPT Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Be interested at £2k George :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Long Posted August 17, 2009 Author Share Posted August 17, 2009 Hi George, Happy to take negotitations offline. Your best bet is to come and have a look and drive. £2k is Quadzilla money, and the Honda's / Suzuki's command significcantly more. It's well priced at just under £3k. A couple of friends have Quadzilla's and have had no end of problems. Buy cheap, buy twice!! Feel free to call me if you want more info - 07785 100 100. Cheers, Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHPT Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Cheers Ben. I completely agree, I have a 250 Fourtrax Honda, a 450ES Honda and then two little Chinese bikes which are crap!!! constantly going wrong. Can you fit a tow bar on these racing ones? I also have a ford on my farm which is about 60-80cm deep, would it pass through it without drowning? George :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Long Posted August 17, 2009 Author Share Posted August 17, 2009 Cheers George. It's always funny when I go out with my mates on their Quadzilla's as there are often expletives shouted when they conk out and bits fall off. Sounds like you've quite a collection already. The 450, as you'll already be aware, is a very torquey engine. I have been off road with it a few times, and have driven through a ford once or twice locally, and that is at least 60cm deep. It is quite high up, and runs very well off road. It's never missed a beat and I recently serviced it with new oil filter and oil. I'm assuming you can fit a tow bar, although not sure where too? I did have to tow a friend back on his Suzuki one day after his chain broke and cracked the crank housing, causing an oil leak. It had no problems in pulling. As I say, you're welcome to come and take a look/drive. I'm not desperate to sell, but need to free up room in the garage for a new toy arriving early next year. Cheers, Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHPT Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Need it to really pull a little trailer with pheasant food in at least on the tow ball. Do you have to insure it to use on the road? George :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red SLR Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Do you have to insure it to use on the road? Yes. You may also want to consider what a "road" is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frying Pan Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 There was a bloke on one of these in the outside lane of the M40 Northbound near Banbury on Friday afternoon Oh, and he wasn't wearing a helmet See some pictures of the build here. 17000 miles completed!
